Research Reports and Management Plans

Our applied research programs are motivated by the need to find practical and cost-effective solutions to challenges encountered in the the course of boots-on-the-ground restoration. Our research has enabled us to validate our industry-leading approaches on an empirical level, ensuring that Integrated's clients receive the cutting edge of the rapidly-expanding science of restoration ecology.
